The Dragon’s Promise (Six Crimson Cranes, #2)

“Yet you act as though he’s the one who gave you a piece of his heart. As if he saved you from drowning in the Sacred Lake.”

You’re right. He gave his WHOLE heart

I hate this

He looked more regal, more handsome—but also more like a stranger.

“I didn’t want mine to be that way,” he confessed. “I was hoping, if it turned out to be you, that you would want to be here. Because you cared for me.”

The difference came stampeding into my thoughts. Takkan.

FINALLY that was CLOSE

To finally tell him I loved him.

This is torture

He was weaker.
